The reason is that, after you made the last profile, you ran `guix
pull`.

Some package that is used to build profiles was updated in the `guix
pull` and now, to make a new profile, you need to use that updated
package. There are profile hooks that do things like build the man page
database, and maybe those packages were updated.

Does that make sense?
